How long does it normally take to find out? Can I get the results the same day? I've never had this done before. Do they take the blood right there or do I have to go to some other place to get that done? And I should ask them for the quantatative kind? Is that better? (sorry for all the questions. Lol i'm just a little new to this.)

hey girl, be careful about taking any meds if you think you're pregnant. Tylenol is safe, but I don't know how much it would help.

Yeah becareful with meds. I found out my blood results the same day too. My doctor put stat results on mine. Try taking warm baths or using a heating pad to relax the stomach muscles. Good luck

I think I read that heating pads are a no go for pregnancy. I'm not positive, but I was sleeping with an electric blanket while I was pregnant, and decided to do some research. I can't remember what it said about it, but it did say it was not a good idea. I think the heat and the electricity. I'm assuming that a heating pad is similar to an electric blanket.
